CS Site-Specific Factor 10
Mean Diameter Nucleoli (MLN)

Note 1: Record the mean diameter of the 10 largest nucleoli (MLN) measured on a tissue sample. The absolute values depend on the staining and imaging methods used. Larger values are associated with shorter survival.
Note 2: Record the value as expressed in tenths of micrometers. Record the information based on quartiles for laboratory standards If this is the only expression of results.
